Thanks for bringing this craft to our attention. This is a great way to recycle and make use of "dead time". I will try to start this new craft today! I hope to fill my home with rugs with meaning, from all the old children's clothing and what not we have around. We will literally walk on our own history.
You're most welcome, its my pleasure. I'm truly delighted the Tribune saw fit to publish my letter.
Yes indeed, you understand exactly the beauty of the craft- it takes things which would be thrown out, and turns them into something beautiful and durable. It is also a wonderful way to preserve memories... as the rug pictured in the letter in the Trib attests. When we look at that rug- which is in the center of our bedroom, as we see the different bands of color, we remember when my wife wore a given dress, the pants I wore when I first doffed my cap to her (and made her swoon), and so forth.
Welcome, feel free to post any questions you have, I'm glad to be of any assistance possible.
And on the dead time, again, right on. I work on them on the "L", while sitting in the doctor's office with my wife (she's disabled and goes to the doctor at least once a week), and so forth.
